Answer / ceaser
(b) Parliament has the power to increase expenditure charged on the Consolidated Fund.
Explanation: Expenditure Charged on the Consolidated Fund cannot be voted by Parliament. Hence it cannot be increase or decrease. It can only be discussed. Thus Parliament has no power over Charged Expenditure.
The Budget statement also contains Demands for grants of each and every ministry and these demands for grants are up for vote in the parliament. If voted in favor, the demand for grants are met by Expenditure made from the Consolidated Fund of India. As these are votable, the Parliament has the power to increase or decrease them.
